About this guide
ProspectLayer turns messy business listings into clean, verified, workflow-ready prospect lists. Search by category and location, preview results instantly, then run bulk jobs that paginate continuously and save records to your workspace.
Normalize and dedupe prospects using website, phone, name/address, and geo proximity rules. Enrich selected prospects with lightweight website crawl signals, role emails when a domain exists, and social links when present. Verification tools normalize phones and check website health, with email checks where supported.
Export lists to CSV/XLSX or deliver via API, webhooks, and workspace events so your outbound apps can activate prospects into leads. ProspectLayer is not a CRM or sender—it is the intelligence layer that produces high-quality inputs for the rest of your OS.
